So Christmas is only a week away and winter is certainly here but it seems millions of British couples are having heated rows – about the temperature of their homes, a study has revealed.

Researchers who carried out a detailed study found one in two have had a disagreement with their other half over the house being too hot or too cold.

It also emerged around three disputes blow up in households every week over the heating in the colder months.

For one in five couples the issue was so extreme they even considered breaking up with their partner in favour of someone who enjoys having the house at the same temperature.

It also emerged nine in 10 of those surveyed have already turned their central heating on this winter, with most fiddling with the thermostat for the first time in October.

One in seven couples also delayed warming up their home because their other half wanted to keep it off for as long as possible.

According to the average couple, the perfect temperature for a home is 21 degrees. But what is the perfect temperature for you?
